I'm getting the "This database does not have a valid dbo user or you do not have permissions to impersonate the dbo user,...." error message when trying to add a Database Diagram from Visual Studio Server Explorer.
I can add the diagram without a problem from SQL Server Management Studio Express CTP.
When I view the properties of the database in VS, the owner shows as XYZMyOldUserName. This is wrong. I just added this database to a new project.
When I view the properties of the database in SSMSE, the owner shows as XYZMyNewUserName. This is correct. It shows the name I am logged onto the PC with.
I'm logged onto a domain using Active Directory. I renamed my user logon name from MyOldUserName to MyNewUserName a couple weeks ago. Now, VS is still picking up that old name somewhere and, despite it showing properly in SSMSE, it does not show properly in VS.
Where is that old user name stored? Why does it essentially show the database as being owned by two different users? (well, at least, the same user with two different names.)
Although I am in the DBO role, whenever I create an object I am put in as the object owner. For the way our database is set up, all of our objects are owned by DBO, and it can be a pain to have to remember to set the owner when creating an object. In 6.5, if you were aliased as dbo, all objects you created were owned by dbo. This is the functionality I'm looking for.
Is there any way to have dbo be the default owner of an object when it is created? Again, I am in the dbo role.
HiOverview - non-sysadmin access to SQL 2k box using 2k5 tools. Not used 2k in over a year,Any way to set the default owner for objects created by a user? So if user x runs: CREATE TABLE mytable ( mycol BIT ) it is owned by dbo not x (dbo.mytable not x.mytable)? Note I can't (or won't for now anyway) change the DDL above. I also don't believe I can do this with the SSMS tools (schema <> owner). I also can't use sp_adduser...So 2k comliant T-SQL or at a push SMO only please!Ta
Hello,I have an SQL Server 2005 database that I'm trying to create using script.Everything works fine, but when I click on "Database Diagrams" I get anerror message that there is no database owner, and of course when I show theDatabase Properties, the database was created without one. Is there any wayto ALTER AUTHORIZATION to a default owner or system administrator, somethingvalid?Any direction would be appreciated.Thanks!Rick
If i create a database in sql express in windows authentication mode, the database owner is in the format of 'MACHINENAMEUSERNAME'. If i connect this database to iis server i got login failed error message.
This is my connection string in my web.config : Provider=SQLOLEDB.1;Integrated Security=SSPI;Persist Security Info=True;Initial Catalog=dbsgh;Data Source=software92sqlexpress
I solved this problem by creating a login in sqlexpress called 'software92/aspnet' and creating a user for my database named aspnet under 'software92/aspnet' login. Then i changed the usrename in directory security of my iis virtual directory to 'software92/aspnet'. This solves my problem. But i think i m solving this problem in a wrong way. I think i should create that database under default owner. Who is the default owner?
I dont know the correct procedure to solve this. Please help.
When building a website, I get two SQL databases auto-generated: ASPNET.MDF and ASPNETDB.mdf - both have a log file associated with them, and I can connect to them locally no problem. However, when I try to connect through my host, I get an error message: "Could not find stored procedure 'dbo.aspnet_CheckSchemaVersion'." I think this is because the ASPNET file doesn't show any database objects??? (ASPNETDB has all its objects) My questions: Should I be getting both files autogenerated? And if so: How can I (or should I) get the ASPNET file to rebuild its database objects? This problem has roots in the fact that I deleted the file(s), thinking they were unneccesary (rookie mistake, I know), and then tried various uninstall/re-install schemes, all of which has put me back to this problem of about four days ago. Now that's what I call progress! ;-) I'm using Visual Web Developer Express 2005 with the default SQL Express version. I've looked at the related posts, of course, but don't see anything specific. I think this is the code in question, and it looks OK to me, but I am a rank beginner: System.Web.Util.SecUtility.CheckSchemaVersion(ProviderBase provider, SqlConnection connection, String[] features, String version, Int32& schemaVersionCheck) +367 Thanks in advance. biobot
Is this the only way to rename the default SQLEXPRESS instance name? http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;Q283811 Is there an easier way? I tried going to Register and changing it.. but that didn't seem to do anything.
I have several default constraints defined on a table. When I use theObject Browser and expand the constraints for this table andright-click and then select "Script Object to New Window As Create", acreate constraint statement for a different default constraint isdisplayed than the one I just right-clicked on. For example, I clickon constraint "DF_C" and it shows me "DF_B".The last time I encountered this, the solution was to dump contents ofthe table into another, drop, recreate it, and restore the contents.That's not a good option this time.Is there another way to fised this or at least navigate the catalog tofind out what is "off" about this?Thanks
For reasons that are not relevant (though I explain them below *), Iwant, for all my users whatever privelige level, an SP which createsand inserts into a temporary table and then another SP which reads anddrops the same temporary table.My users are not able to create dbo tables (eg dbo.tblTest), but arepermitted to create tables under their own user (eg MyUser.tblTest). Ihave found that I can achieve my aim by using code like this . . .SET @SQL = 'CREATE TABLE ' + @MyUserName + '.' + 'tblTest(tstIDDATETIME)'EXEC (@SQL)SET @SQL = 'INSERT INTO ' + @MyUserName + '.' + 'tblTest(tstID) VALUES(GETDATE())'EXEC (@SQL)This becomes exceptionally cumbersome for the complex INSERT & SELECTcode. I'm looking for a simpler way.Simplified down, I am looking for something like this . . .CREATE PROCEDURE dbo.TestInsert ASCREATE TABLE tblTest(tstID DATETIME)INSERT INTO tblTest(tstID) VALUES(GETDATE())GOCREATE PROCEDURE dbo.TestSelect ASSELECT * FROM tblTestDROP TABLE tblTestIn the above example, if the SPs are owned by dbo (as above), CREATETABLE & DROP TABLE use MyUser.tblTest while INSERT & SELECT usedbo.tblTest.If the SPs are owned by the user (eg MyUser.TestInsert), it workscorrectly (MyUser.tblTest is used throughout) but I would have to havea pair of SPs for each user.* I have MS Access ADP front end linked to a SQL Server database. Forreports with complex datasets, it times out. Therefore it suit mypurposes to create a temporary table first and then to open the reportbased on that temporary table.
The SQL ERRORLOG shows: Error is 3414, Severity 21, State 2 and says: "An error occurred during recovery, preventing the database 'model' (database ID 3) from restarting." Just prior to this, I get a warning: "did not see LP_CKPT_END".
Any thoughts why this might be and how I can fix this?
I have created an installation application which will install the application with SQL Express and .NET Framework 2.0.
If i install this application in a Fresh system(i.e which is not having SQL Express), it is installing the application with new database instance successfully.
But if i try to install the same in a system which is already having SQL Express, throwing "Object reference exception" because it is not able to create the new database instance.
Because of numerous problems trying to get sqlexpress working, I uninstalled it with the intention of reinstalling (via Add or Remove Programs). However, now when I try to reinstall it, I get a message that the I am not making a changes so it won't let me install it.
I do have sql server 2005 developer's edition installed; is that the reason? and does that mean I cannot have both installed on the same machine?
Im trying to insert a record in my sql server 2005 express database.The following function tries that and without an error returns true.However, no data is inserted into the database...Im not sure whether my insert statement is correct: I saw other example with syntax: insert into table values(@value1,@value2)....so not sure about thatAlso, I havent defined the parameter type (eg varchar) but I reckoned that could not make the difference....Here's my code: Function CreateNewUser(ByVal UserName As String, ByVal Password As String, _ ByVal Email As String, ByVal Gender As Integer, _ ByVal FirstName As String, ByVal LastName As String, _ ByVal CellPhone As String, ByVal Street As String, _ ByVal StreetNumber As String, ByVal StreetAddon As String, _ ByVal Zipcode As String, ByVal City As String, _ ByVal Organization As String _ ) As Boolean 'returns true with success, false with failure Dim MyConnection As SqlConnection = GetConnection() Dim bResult As Boolean Dim MyCommand As New SqlCommand("INSERT INTO tblUsers(UserName,Password,Email,Gender,FirstName,LastName,CellPhone,Street,StreetNumber,StreetAddon,Zipcode,City,Organization) VALUES(@UserName,@Password,@Email,@Gender,@FirstName,@LastName,@CellPhone,@Street,@StreetNumber,@StreetAddon,@Zipcode,@City,@Organization)", MyConnection) MyCommand.Parameters.Add(New SqlParameter("@UserName", SqlDbType.NChar, UserName)) MyCommand.Parameters.Add(New SqlParameter("@Password", Password)) MyCommand.Parameters.Add(New SqlParameter("@Email", Email)) MyCommand.Parameters.Add(New SqlParameter("@Gender", Gender)) MyCommand.Parameters.Add(New SqlParameter("@FirstName", FirstName)) MyCommand.Parameters.Add(New SqlParameter("@LastName", LastName)) MyCommand.Parameters.Add(New SqlParameter("@CellPhone", CellPhone)) MyCommand.Parameters.Add(New SqlParameter("@Street", Street)) MyCommand.Parameters.Add(New SqlParameter("@StreetNumber", StreetNumber)) MyCommand.Parameters.Add(New SqlParameter("@StreetAddon", StreetAddon)) MyCommand.Parameters.Add(New SqlParameter("@Zipcode", Zipcode)) MyCommand.Parameters.Add(New SqlParameter("@City", City)) MyCommand.Parameters.Add(New SqlParameter("@Organization", Organization)) Try MyConnection.Open() MyCommand.ExecuteNonQuery() bResult = True Catch ex As Exception bResult = False Finally MyConnection.Close() End Try Return bResult End FunctionThanks!
Hi All,I've been struggling with this for hours...Could someone please advise me on how to convert my current File based SQL Server Express website to a Server based SQL Express one.Particularly interested in what I need to do in the SQL Express management tool, changes I need to make the projecvt itself and changes needed to get IIS to understand things have been changed.Thanks,Martin.
Hi, Does anyone have a workaround or know of a fix to this problem: Default value set to 'date pick' from date currently within field by setting value equal to that field . ie if date is 01/01/2010 date picker opens in Jan 2010 - works ok. However, once published to Sharepoint and run through browser the Date Picker ignores the default value and the date picker opens for today. ie April 2008.
Hi, I have a little problem regarding getting owner name of object. In my application, user is creating a table with no owner name. He is logged with some login other than 'sa'.
The table is created with db's default owner name (if no server roles specified for that login) otherwise it uses the login's owner name mentioned in db properties.
Please guide me if i want the correct owner name under which the table is created, shall i use CURRENT_USER for that? Regards,
Hi,I currently have two databases (DEV & TEST) with the same users butdifferent owners. The TEST database is on a remote machine with 2database users - USR1 & DBO. The DEV database is exactly the same.However, when I create procedures etc the DEV database recognises theowner as DBO and the TEST database USR1.I have made USR1 an owner on DEV and I login using the correctcredentials. However it still is not recognising this when creatingprocedures.This is very frustrating when doing a SQL Compare as it thinks thestored procs are different!I have done a sp_changedbowner and this didn't work. There must beanother config value that need changing?Any ideas?Thanks.
We are using SQL Express and I have a problem with dbo. On my machine if I logon to SQL Express using windows authentication and create a new database I automatically have db_owner role membership on the new database. On a colleagues machine, if he logs onto his SQL Express using windows authentication and creates a new database he does NOT have db_owner role membership on the new database.
How come? I have checked pretty much everythng - windows built in admins, SQL express sysadmin roles service pack versions but I can not find any difference in setup. What should I do to his machine/SQL Express setup so he automatically has db_owner role membership for every newly created database?
hi: I get a database called"linlin".But the owner of database is not dbo or sa,but user "ss".I revert the database into my SQL server.

When insert ,update,delete something from linlin with user sa,is it OK?My SQL is personnal edition. Appreciate your help!
hi, I just imported my access database into sql server 2000 and apparently during this importation the owner was set to my name. This gives my a problem retrieving the data in asp.net though. I found out that the problem (System.Data.SqlClient.SqlException: Invalid object name 'tablename') is situated at this ownership by stripping the query to a bare minimum and trying it on a new table created in sql server with dbo as the owner. My problem now is that I can't seem to find the way to change the owner to dbo from 'peterj'. Can you help me on this one ??
How can I get different between DBO owner and another user when I select SP name from SYSOBJECTS? How to compare a SP's create by DBO and another user? Example for, I want to list all SPs of DBO owner to excute my statement (as sp_changeobjowner...), but when I select all SPs in SYSOBJECTS to cursor, if there is any SPname's created by another user (no DBO), I'm getting error. Thanks in advance, J.K
I want 'sa' to own all the user databases. Currently the database properties screen shows the owner as myself, 'al', but the list from the Users tab in EM for the database doesn't list me, but lists the dbo as login name 'sa'. DB_changedbowner 'sa' says:
Server: Msg 15110, Level 16, State 1, Procedure sp_changedbowner, Line 46 The proposed new database owner is already a user in the database.
BUT, who really owns the database; if it's 'sa' then why am I showing up on the properties page as the owner???
Hi, can a SQL Server Agent job owner be a userid instead of sa? I tried to changed it to my own userid with sysadmin role but the job wouldn't run unless it is own by sa.
I have several Production Databases on my SQL Server 2000 Standard Edition Server (mixed mode authentication) that I'd like to change DBO Permissions on. When I look at the Properties of the DB(s) from EM, the Database owner is showing up as a Windows NT USer who is no longer even with the company!!
Can I use the sp_changedbowner 'sa' command to change the database owner to sa without disrupting Production? Might sound like a dumb question.. but ya never know!!!!! Also, I had someone on another forum tell me that 'sa' as db owner is a bad idea but I don't know why??????? can anyone elaborate on that?????
I need to change the owner of all stored procedures from x to y. I know there is a sp_changeobjectowner sp, which does that, but in that way I will have to write a loop to get all sps which are owned by user x. Can somebody help me with that?
